Exhibitor Press Room Guidelines
The ICAST Press Room supports exhibitors by assisting members of the media in getting the word out about your products and services. The press room is a valuable resource for hundreds of media representatives who attend ICAST, greatly increasing the likelihood that exhibiting companies will garner free publicity for new products, services and other news.

General Guidelines
• Only ASA members can place materials in the press room.
• ICAST Sponsors will receive prominent reserved bin space, signage and other special visibility in the Press Room and in other ASA promotions.
• Bins are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis. One bin per company.
• Exhibitors are responsible for keeping their bins stocked throughout the show, although ASA staff will certainly help as much as possible.
• Press kits, catalogs and other materials may also be distributed in exhibiting companies’ booths, but not in the aisles on the show floor or other common areas.
• Because of agreements with our host hotels, ASA must give prior approval for show daily-type publications or other promotional materials intended for distribution by the hotels.
• ASA staff reserves the right to move or remove materials that do not comply with any of these guidelines.
Press Room Bulletin Board
Exhibitors planning press conferences, product demonstrations, celebrity guest appearances or any other special events or booth attractions may place posters, notices or announcements on the ICAST Press Room Bulletin Board (please limit the size to 8 ½” x 11”).
If you need to arrange for a press conference room, please refer to the Press Conference Room Request Form or contact ICAST Associate Kenneth Andres, 703-519-9691, ext. 231.
Delivering Materials
Materials MUST be hand delivered to the press room between Monday, July 14 and Tuesday, July 15, 2008. We recommend providing 100-200 units of material for the ICAST Press Room. Limited storage space is available beneath each bin.
